For a long time brie was not one of my favorite cheeses but that all changed when I tried baking it recently. The first time I tried it baked I baked it in puff pastry with some cranberry sauce. The melted ooey gooey brie took on a whole new and wonderful life and it was almost irresistible. I quickly followed that up with a baked brie with fig jam in golden brown puff pastry and I really enjoyed that as well. It had been working so well with on the sweet side that I had not even thought about trying the savoury side. Then I came across this recipe for a baked brie with sun dried tomatoes on White on Rice Couple and I knew that I just had to try it. Melted brie with flavourful sun dried tomatoes, garlic and thyme sounded like a great combination! I also liked that this version was not baked in pastry as it would be much easier to dip into or spread onto things like crostini. This recipe is really easy to follow though you should watch out for the amount of brie. By the time the rind has been removed and it has been baked there is not much melted brie left. I got one ramekin out of an 8 ounce brie. The baked brie with sun dried tomatoes and thyme was so good! It is hard to beat melted cheese and the sundried tomatoes added a ton of flavor. The thyme added a hint of earthiness that finished off the dip nicely. I served the baked brie dip with some whole grained crackers for dipping.
Baked Brie with Sundried Tomatoes
ingredients
- 8 ounces brie (rind removed and cut into cubes)
- 2 ounces sundried tomatoes packed in oil (chopped)
- 1 clove garlic (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon thyme (chopped)
- pepper to taste
directions
- Mix everything.
- Transfer to a small baking dish. (The mixture should fill the baking dish to the brim as it will shrink when baked.)
- Bake in a preheated 325F/170C oven until the brie is melted and starts to bubble, about 20-30 minutes.
I love any recipe with baked brie. Never tried with Sundried Tomatoes but this recipe sounds like a winner. Looks good Kevin.
I think the crackers are perfect for this cheese diP!

I love baked brie, and will have to try this recipe next time we entertain. Yum!
A while ago, I enjoyed some baked brie at a friend’s wedding and resolved to come up with my own version. I am a huge fan of sundried tomatoes, and of course, you come up with just the sort of recipe I should try. Thanks Kevin. Your efforts are so appreciated.
Mmmmhhh what a delicious way for serving brie, I’d love to dip my homemade bread in it.
Cheers,

I never would have thought about that combo! That would be great for a party!
Baked brie is a good time. That looks like a great recipe, I’ve just recently gotten into sun dried tomatoes. I’ll have to try it out.
This is SO going to show up at my next party. Or next weekend. Or maybe tomorrow night, for dinner. Looks absolutely amazing!
A brie dip with sun dried tomatoes sounds like the perfect party dip, with flair! I bet it was just soooo good.
Oh wow, this does sound good! I love the recipes over at White on Rice Couple.
What a great idea!
What a scrumptious dip! I love Brie cheese and sundried tomatoes! Your picture is beautiful…

I absolutely love baked brie. I usually have it rubbed in paprika, but this version looks really tasty!
wow they look creamy and delicious. bookmarking them.
I too like baked Brie much more than if it’s not baked. Yummy yum yum – I love the sundried tomatoes you’ve added!
i love brie and i love sundried tomatoes…i’ve gotta try this!!
Oh, wow. Thanks so much for this. I have wanted to try my hand at baked brie with jam for the longest time. I know I would love it. Now with sundried tomatoes? So I’m thinking this for dinner and the other for dessert. 🙂
Brie – my all time fave cheese. I get the ferry over to France at least a couple of times a year just to buy loads of Brie and Wine to bring back home!!! This looks awesome
I love baked Brie, but like you I have only paired it with sweet things so far. This is a whole new idea to me! Lovely…..
Oh my! That looks absolutely luscious! Thanks for sharing this…it looks like a gem! 🙂
I never had baked brie. It looks really good though. Those crackers look perfect for it too
This looks amazing: and so easy!
Too bad I already finished my brie (yesterday for breakfast with a bagel LOL)
We love brie in our house but have never tried baking it. You make it sound delicious! It looks delicious too 🙂
Thanks for dropping by my blog.
this looks so good. another delicious (re: no pastry) version is to just to remove the wrapper, slice off the top of the brie and put it back in its little wooden box to soften in the oven. when it comes out, spread the top with raspberry jam.
it’s the simplest little appetizer but it always seems to disappear first at parties.
I’ve got a big jar of sundried tomatoes in oil that’s looking for a good recipe. I think I found it.
YUM!!! I WILL be making this!
baked brie sounds fab…why do i feel like getting a great big panini and dipping it into that?? x
Ohh how I love thee Brie, this is a must try, thanks for sharing!
I just can’t get enough of brie. This recipe looks amazing – love the photo.

It’s like a brie fondu! How great is that? I make a similar one with chevre…and serve it in butter warmers with slices of apple and bread.
I saw this recipe on their site as well and it looked incredible – Yours now reminds me to get off my backside and make it!! YUM

It’s also great with roasted red peppers, red pepper jelly and more like that!

MaryBeth: Brie is a soft, mild and creamy cheese.

Anonymous: Brie with caponata does sound like a good combo!
Why did you remove the rind? The rind of most brie is edible – and delicious!
